200A Electrical Panel & Meter Base Upgrade in Hendersonville, NC

Our Greenville team completed a comprehensive service upgrade for a homeowner in Hendersonville, NC, delivering a new 200 amp main service with a meter base combo, a dedicated 50 amp EV charging outlet, and a range of lighting and receptacle improvements throughout the home. This project was designed to boost capacity, enhance safety, and add convenient power where it’s needed most.

What We Installed

• 200A meter base combo and main panel (indoor): Installed and supplied a new 200 amp aluminum-bus main panel with grounding electrodes and whole-home surge protection, paired with a new 200A meter base combo for reliable service.
• 200A service disconnect (indoor): Added a dedicated disconnect switch for clear, code-compliant service isolation.
• 50A EV charger outlet: Ran a high-amperage dedicated circuit and installed a 50 amp outlet to support electric vehicle charging.
• Wiring upgrades: Provided and installed the required feeder and branch circuit wiring to support the service changes and new devices.

Lighting, Outlets, and Switching Improvements

• Ceiling lighting: Relocated an existing sconce and converted it to a sleek ceiling can light for better, more even illumination.
• Convenience outlets: Added an outlet by the front door and three outlets inside floor cabinets to power small appliances and accessories.
• Under-cabinet lighting: Installed lighting under three cabinets to brighten countertop work areas.
• Switching updates: Moved two switches to an adjacent switch box for cleaner control layout and removed one existing switch as requested.
• Heater circuits: Added two dedicated outlets for space heaters to ensure safe, reliable power delivery.
• Fireplace power: Installed a new outlet above the fireplace, in the location of two windows scheduled for removal, to support future electronics and décor lighting.
• Outdoor power: Added an outlet under the deck for tools, lighting, and seasonal needs.

Access was available via the crawlspace and basement under the entire work area, allowing neat, protected routing of conductors and clean terminations throughout.

Why This Upgrade Matters
